The housekeeper relayed the results to Qin Zhenzhen.

“Miss Zhenzhen, I’ve followed your instructions and informed the Empress Dowager. However, her expression is rather unfavorable. It’s hard to discern whether it’s a positive or negative sign.”

“Miss Qin, please exercise caution,” advised the housekeeper.

Nonetheless, Qin Zhenzhen remained composed. “Thank you for your concern, nanny. I am confident it will turn out for the best.”

Individuals like the Empress Dowager were most apprehensive about their mortality and were reluctant to take risks.

As for the emperor, his disposition fell somewhere in the middle; not entirely benevolent, yet not overly tyrannical. Qin Zhenzhen appreciated his proactive measures to safeguard both her and her grandmother from the Empress Dowager’s schemes.

On the surface, it appeared that the emperor possessed some sense of compassion. However, he was known for his licentious behavior and lacked significant competence. Consequently, in the original storyline, he would easily succumb to being usurped by the Eighth Imperial Uncle.

With any luck, this emperor would exhibit moral integrity and prove himself deserving of support.

In the future, once Su Bin’s name graced the Golden Ranking List, he could secure an official position under the emperor’s reign, aiding in the stabilization of the realm.

However, if the Eighth Imperial Uncle failed to ascend to the throne, the chosen Primus might not be Su Bin, and the course of events could veer in unpredictable directions.

Su Bin and his companions enjoyed several days in the outskirts of the capital. However, when news spread like wildfire that the Eighth Imperial Uncle and the Jiang family had staged a rebellion and were subsequently imprisoned, they decided to return to the capital.

The information concerning the Old Marquis was notably scarce. Initially, he remained oblivious to Su Bin and Su Ping’s arrival in the capital. It wasn’t until rumors circulated throughout the city that he learned of Qin Zhenzhen and her grandmother’s dire situation within the palace.

Mr. Chen, weighed down by his busy schedule, felt that it was unjust to withhold the information from the Old Marquis for too long. Thus, during Su Bin and the others’ excursion to the suburbs, he chose to divulge the events to the Old Marquis.

The Old Marquis expressed his discontent and reprimanded Mr. Chen, saying, “Are you no longer treating me as your master? Why did you not inform me immediately? The twenty-year agreement between the Chen Family and the

Marquis Mansion has yet to expire! Are you now concealing matters from me?”

Su Bin shared similar sentiments. In the past, he had claimed that his studies took precedence and he couldn’t visit Beijing to see the Old Marquis. Yet, this time, he accompanied his wife to the capital and seemingly had no intention of visiting him. Was the financial support he provided insufficient to earn him recognition as Su Bin’s biological grandfather?

Mr. Chen explained, “I chose not to disclose this information to the Marquis for the time being. It was actually Young Master’s wish.”

“Due to the perilous situation that the young master and his companions face upon entering the capital this time,” Mr. Chen began, explaining the underlying animosity between the Empress Dowager and Grandma Qin.

Initially, Su Bin had contemplated having the Old Marquis petition for a decree to bestow upon him the title of the Marquis Mansion’s heir, effectively making Qin Zhenzhen the heiress of the Marquis Mansion. This scheme was intended to unsettle the Empress Dowager.

However, Su Bin eventually abandoned this plan out of concern for the Marquis Mansion’s welfare, not wanting to embroil the Marquis in potential troubles.

Mr. Chen continued, “Young Master’s actions are driven by his concern for the well-being of everyone in the Marquis Mansion. This is why he chose not to inform the Marquis of his presence in the capital.”

“I believe that Young Master has his reasons for this decision, which is why I supported him in keeping this matter concealed.”

Hearing Mr. Chen’s explanation, the Old Marquis’s stern expression softened. Nevertheless, he inquired, “Mr. Chen, you have essentially become Su Bin’s strategist. Why don’t you advise him to pursue the same plan as before?”

The Old Marquis was currently preoccupied with the thought of when Su Bin would bring his siblings back to the Marquis Mansion to honor their heritage. Regrettably, due to his ignorance of Su Bin’s presence in Beijing, he had missed an excellent opportunity.

The Old Marquis’s anxiety was palpable.

Mr. Chen gazed intently at the Old Marquis and asked, “Are you truly unafraid of potentially implicating the entire Marquis Mansion on account of Young Master?”

At that time, when the secret began circulating, the Eighth Imperial Uncle and the Jiang family were still unharmed..
